[Passwordsafe-users] Announcing PasswordSafe 3.39 for Windows

[pwsafe.org <ro...@pw...>]

Hi,

This is to announce the release of PasswordSafe version 3.39 for Windows.
This is a maintenance release, fixing a few minor issues, as described
below.
Thanks to dk, sauravg, pm_kan, Bjorne, and others for their help in this
release.
Thanks also to all the users who have provided bug reports, suggestions,
and the occasional donation...

Note for Windows XP users: For this release, we've had to make a separate
build to support the program under Windows XP. Based on the number of
downloads for this version, we'll decide whether and how to support XP in
future versions, as Microsoft is making it increasingly difficult to do so.


Bugs fixed in 3.39
==================
[1334] An empty group is now correctly changed to a normal group when an
entry is copied into it via Drag & Drop.
[1330] Duplication of an alias or shortcut base entry now correctly results
in a normal entry.
[1319] Re-implement fix for BR 1319 so that the added entry no longer appears
always selected until the display is refreshed.
[] Export of a complete database to XML now includes all Named Password
Policies.
[] When renaming a group, all empty subgroups are now correctly renamed.
[] Disable switch to read-only when unlocking with changes pending.

Changes to Existing Features in 3.39
====================================
[806] The group will be saved as an "empty group" when the last entry with
this group value is deleted. This is similar to the action of the
filesystem when the last file within a folder/directory is deleted.
[463] Double click on a word in the Notes field, e.g. for copy & paste, now
no longer includes any trailing spaces.  This is different to the standard
Microsoft processing in their products.

New Features for 3.39
=====================
[] Support Drag & Drop of empty groups and groups containing empty groups
between multiple instances of PasswordSafe.  Note: Prior versions of
PasswordSafe will not recognize or process empty groups.
[] It is now possible to list entries using a Named Password Policy from the
Manage Password Policies dialog (right click on the name).
